Stepping up a notch from current services operated by the LNER, Lumo and Caledonian Sleeper, the new trains promise to cut journey times, stopping only at Newcastle and York.
Currently, the average train journey duration between London and Edinburgh is around 5.5 hours, with some trains able to complete this earlier. But the new, revised hourly service will reduce times by 30 or more minutes, bringing the average to just over four hours.
The most common mode of transportation among visitors between these destinations is flight, which takes 1 hour 20 minutes excluding check-in, security, arrival at the airport, etc., which can take 4-5 hours. This is where train service will improve travel flow to a great extent and attract more people to skip flying, which is also an environmentally conscious decision.
This new project is currently awaiting approval from the UK Government.
